2. USING CAR SPEAKERS FOR CARS WITH AMPLIFIERS, BUT NO
VEHICLE-SPECIFIC ADAPTERS
If the car radio is pre-amplified and if Parrot does not offer a vehicle-specific harness for
the car and radio configuration, it is still possible to install the Parrot, so that the sound
comes through the car speakers and the car radio can be muted. To do it, you’ll need to
splice in.
1.
SPLICING SYSTEM IN
Splice the wires and connect them one-by-one (eight wires total). You will need to
connect the following:
a.
Of the Power Harness: Orange to Ignition, Red to Battery, Black to
Ground
b.
Of Mute Harness: Yellow with metal tip to Mute Input or Mute Relay,
Blue+/Green- to the right speaker, Red+/Orange- to the left speaker.
Remember to use the Female part of the harness (the one with metal pins
inside).
You can splice
after
the amplifier. This way the system will not only run the speakers
with its own built-in amplifier, but will mute the radio through the supplied Mute Relay.
If additional mute is required, please install additional Mute Relay on the head unit
ignition wire and place Parrot’s Mute wire (Yellow with a metal tip) into that Relay if
your radio does not have the Mute Input or Wire in the back. The radio will be grounded
every time the phone is active.
Remember that car radio warranty may be lost when wires are spliced. That depends on
manufacturer and dealer policies.
BOSE Stereos
To make Parrot work with BOSE system you will need to splice in
before
the amplifier
with a resistor (BOSE uses 2 Ohm speakers).
3. USING EXTERNAL SPEAKER(S)
In some cases, you may want to or may have to use external speaker or two speakers
instead of the car speakers.
We recommend using speaker(s) with a power of approximately 6W and 4 Ohms.
The connection to the power cable remains the same as in a basic installation.
